You Will Need

Buy sturdy felt doll hats at your local Micheal's, Jo-Anne Fabrics or a similar store. They're usually around $2 to $3 dollars each.

Step 2

Cover each hat in Gesso so that your paint wont be soaked up into the porous material of the hat.

Step 3

Using acrylic gloss paint, cover the hats with your choice of color. If the hats you bought were black, this is sure to take a few coats.

Step 4

Deconstruct some fake flowers, making sure to have lots of different shapes and sizes. Snip off all the flowers you like and get ready for arranging them on the hat. <3

Step 5

Using a medium width ribbon, wrap around the hat and glue in place. Then arrange all flowers and whatever other objects you like in a cascading pattern down the side and front of the hat. Hot glue each in place. In this pink example, I also added veiling in the back for a more dressy feel.

Step 6

Hats look great with or without the veil. This yellow example is veil-less. ^_^

After the hat is complete, hot glue to a headband/ or glue on clips to both sides of the hat opening underneath. <3

Ready to wear with a lovely vintage dress. <3

Step 7

Because I made these for my Bridesmaids, I also made boutonnieres for the Groomsmen out of smaller doll hats. I glued a pin underneath to attach to the suits.
